Mac Tools, a worldwide leader in the automotive tool and equipment business, and Ypsilanti,
Michigan-based Kalitta Motorsports, a Top Fuel and Funny Car professional drag racing team
competing in the NHRA (National Hot Rod Association), announced today that they will continue to
fly the red, yellow, and white colors of Mac Tools as the primary sponsor on the Doug
Kalitta-driven Top Fuel dragster through the 2016 NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series season.

For over two decades, Mac Tools has been a partner of Kalitta Motorsports in the capacity of either
primary or associate sponsor. The famed and record-setting "Big Red" Mac Tools Top Fuel dragster
driven by Doug Kalitta has rocketed down NHRA national event drag strips at over 320 mph since
2001. After the economic crisis in the United States a few years ago, Mac Tools had to step aside
as Kalitta's primary sponsor at the end of the 2008 season, but remained an associate sponsor with
the team and vowed to return primary sponsorship when possible. Mac Tools kept that promise and
once again became the primary backer for Kalitta beginning at the U.S. Nationals in Indianapolis
last fall.

"We are extremely honored to have our friends at Mac Tools racing with us for at least three more
years," Kalitta, a 49-year old resident of Ann Arbor, Mich. said. "Our partnership with Mac Tools
is one of the best and most successful relationships in the history of NHRA drag racing. Brett Shaw
(President, Mac Tools) and Tony Merritt, (Director of Motorsports) and the entire team at Mac Tools
are like members of our family. We are honored to continue racing the Mac Tools dragster for them
and all of the great Mac Tools Distributors throughout the world."

"Mac Tools have been associated with Kalitta Motorsports and Connie (Kalitta, team owner and drag
racing icon) for over 20 years, and we are proud to be extending our partnership with this
legendary team for the next several years. This would not be possible without the success of our
Distributors and support of our loyal customers. This partnership provides our company the
opportunity to continue our momentum by increasing the exposure for our products, brand and to
reach those who are interested in 'Being their own Boss' by becoming a Mac Tools Franchise," said
Brett Shaw, President of Mac Tools.
